The Eleanor Ettinger Gallery was a private art gallery in SoHo, Manhattan. The gallery was founded in 1975 by Eleanor Ettinger. The gallery had started as a home for fine art lithography, with Norman Rockwell as the first artist to host an exhibition there. Notable artists that were exhibited at the Eleanor Ettinger Gallery included Malcolm T. Liepke, Alice Neel, and R. Kenton Nelson.The Eleanor Ettinger Gallery was later owned and run by Eleanor Ettinger's daughter, Frann Bradford, and Frann's husband James Umphlett. They had an interest in realism, and representational and contemporary art, and this was reflected in the work exhibited during their time running the gallery. In July 2010, they decided to move the gallery out of SoHo, and opened new two locations in Midtown on 57th Street and in Chelsea on 25th Street. The Eleanor Ettinger Gallery closed in 2013.

Scholastic Building
Scholastic Building

The Scholastic Building is the 10-story headquarters of the Scholastic Corporation, located on Broadway between Prince and Spring Streets in the SoHo neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. Built in 2001, it was the first new building to be constructed in the SoHo-Cast Iron Historic District, replacing a one-story garage built in 1954. It is the only building in New York ever to be designed by Italian architect, Aldo Rossi. Originally conceived of in his New York office, it was completed and refined by disciple of his, Morris Adjmi. It is respectful of the neighboring buildings and pays homage to the district's cast iron architectural identity. The cast iron architecture that defines this neighborhood straddles between the classical and industrial periods of New York's past. According to historian William Higgins, "the building’s columnar Broadway façade, in steel, terra-cotta, and stone, echoes the scale and the formal, Classical character of its commercial neighbors. The rear façade, on Mercer Street, extracts a gritty essence from its more utilitarian surroundings of plain cast iron and weathered masonry." The Scholastic Building was designed and assembled using a "kit of parts" methodology, which is similar to a time when the facades of SoHo's cast-iron buildings were built by ordering the building elements and ornaments in parts from a catalog, having them cast off-site in foundries, and assembled on site.
